Both men and women Ulinzi handball teams continued to cause ripples in the National Handball League with the duo leading the respective logs.

The match which ended 21-05 at the break courtesy of Sharks,had the dangerous Sarah Wasike score 10 field goals with the opponents always caught napping during attacks.

Sharon Mulei was also vibrant with the ball as she weighed in with seven goals as the duo of Caren Lutengeya and Mercy Chepkirui came through with five goals apiece. The Ulinzi side are on 38 points at the apex of the table following 20 games with an incredible 451 goal difference.

In another women’s league encounter,third placed National Cereals & Produce Board (NCPB) spanked Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture & Technology (JKUAT) 44-14 at the same venue. Naomi Muyoka notched 14 while Joan Akinyi had 12 as they led the charge against the University side who seemed to have little answers for the opponents’ combative and attacking style.
